Dear Masami san,

Thanks for the ISBN Number. Good to see that Amazon (.com) have this book in
stock :-). Often I can only buy japanese books at Amazon.co.jp, which is
quite a bit expensive including with shipping to Europe ;)

Cheers,

Daniel

This book is very unique for containing "How to make 12 kinds of Japanese
famous traditional kite". which is made by Bamboo and Washi paper with
unique pinting by dye color.

Sagara-dako, Sode-
dako, Hito-dako, Berabo-dako, Oni-yozu, Rokkaku-dako, Semi-dako, and so on.

I beleive that this book is helpful for kite builder in foreign countries.
